Sneakers by Sean has produced some great tributes to New York City in recent months including a pair of New York Yankees Dunks I highlighted earlier this week. He also produced a pair of custom Shaqs in honor of Eli Manning, Michael Strahan and the rest of the New York Giants. These special Shaqs were found at the Customsnkr.com post linked here.

The shoes start out with a basic red/blue colorway to represent the Giants color scheme. Sneakers by Sean added the NY logo found on the team’s helmets on the toe boxes as well as middle panels. The designer also painted “XLII” on the heel to represent the numerals for last year’s Super Bowl.

While I am a Packers fan and I was disappointed in their loss to the Giants in the NFC Championship, I can get behind the New York Giants Shaqs. The team was a Cinderella story as the playoffs started and the simple touches on these Shaqs are appropriate for Tom Coughlin’s hard-nosed team.
